Kanye West is desperate to move to Paris and take his family with him, but wife Kim Kardashian is adamant that her children are not relocating causing furious fights, according to a new report.

The Power rapper reportedly dropped the bombshell that he wants to move to the French capital for most of the year with his young family including baby Saint and daughter North in tow but Kim is not happy.

Kanye has allegedly told Kim that he has had enough of Los Angeles and the media storm that surrounds them, but instead wants to move over to Paris where they have a home and he can work on his new album - the follow-up to The Life of Pablo.

Kim and Kanye have only just moved to their $7.6million home in the Hidden Hills, but now Kanye is ready to uproot them again and it has allegedly caused tension between the two.

A source told Closer: “Kim was furious when Kanye told her that he wants to spend half the year in France. She completely flipped out and told him: ‘You’re not taking the kids to Paris!’

"They’ve just finished renovating their home and, while they’re not planning on staying there as they always saw it more as an investment, she wanted to finally see if they could make a go of things, living as a proper family.”

Kim, who grew up in California is keen to raise her children there surrounded by her friends and family and is concerned that she’ll feel “lonely and isolated” in Paris.

Meanwhile Kanye, 38, reportedly argued that raising their family away from the media scrum that follows them everyday will be better for them.

“Kanye told Kim that it would be healthier for the kids to spend some time out of the limelight and enjoy a normal childhood away from all of the cameras,” the source told the magazine.

“He said he felt as if North was being damaged by growing up in the limelight and the constant swarm of paparazzi was affecting her behaviour.”

The insider claimed that the couple had a big bust-up over the move which caused them to miss the Easter service with the rest of the family.

Kanye, who recorded some of his tracks in Paris, spoke about his love of the city recently as he said: “In Paris, you’re as far as possible from the land of pleasant smiles.

“You can just trip on inspiration - there are so many people here who dedicate their lives to excellence.”
